related, by a former associate of Driscol was on the drive in eighty
 Workin' under Silver Jack, Which the same is now in Jackson, An aint soon expected back; An there was chap amongst us By the name of Robert Waite, Kinder cute and smart and tonguey- Guess he was graduate. He could talk on ary subject
 From the Bible down to Hoyle, An his words flowed out so easy Jest as smooth an slick as oil; He was what they call skeptic, An he loved to set an weave Hifalutin' works together,
 Tellin' what he didn't b'leye. One day while we all was waitin' For flood we sat around Smokin' nigger head tobaccer
 An hearin' Bob expound;
 Hell. he said, was all q humbug, An he showed as plain as day Thet the Bible was fable,
 An we lowed it looked that way. Miracles" says he, ''an' sich like Is too rank for me to stan, As for Him they call the Savior, He was just common man." You're liari" some one shouted, An you've got to take it back" Then every body started
 Twas the voice of silver Jack. An he cracked his fists together, An he shucked his coat and cried. Ut was in thet thar religion
 Thet my mother lived an died; Am although 1 haven't allus
 l. sed the Lord exactly white, When hear d chump abuse Him He must eat his words or fight" Now this Bob, he warn't no coward An he answered bold and free, stack yer duds and cut yer capers, For ther ain't no flies on me" An they iit for forty minutes.
 An the lads would whoop and cheer When Jack spit mp a tooth or two, Or Bobby lost an ear. But al last Jack got him under An lie -lugged him onct or twict, The Divinity of Christ, But Jack kcp' reasonin' with him Till the poor Cuss gin q yell An allowed he'd been mistaken In his views concernin hell. Then the fierce discussion ended. An they got up from the ground, An some one fetched d bottle out, An kindly passed It round, An we drank 10 Jacks religion In solemn sort of way. An the spread of inildelity
 Was checked in camp that day.

What the Mt. Lebanon Shakers FOund--Incident in the His
 tory of a Quiet Community.

The Mount Lebanon (New York;
 Shakers are a quiet community, se-
 cluded from the fret and worry of
 the outside world. They are wide-
 ly known. however, for their strict
 honor and probity in business.
 The Shakers believe that nature
 has remedy for every disease. A
 few have been found-the rest are
 as yet unknown. Many were dis
 covered by accident. Others came
 to light as the result of patient ex- pertinent and research.
 Nervous Dyspepsia is a compar- atively 1sW disease. growing out of the conditions of modern life. It is joint affection of the digestive organs and of the nervous system. These two were formerly treated as separate ailments, and it was left for the clear-sighted Shakers to prove that the basis of this terrible and often fatal complication lies chiefly in the disordered and de- prayed functions of digestion and nutrition. They reasoned thus:- If we can induce the stomach to do it's work, and stimulate the ex- cretive organs to drive out of the body the poisonous waste matters which remain after the life-giying elements of the food have been ab- sorbed, we shall have conquered Nervous Dyspepsia and Nervous Exhaustion. And they were right. Knowing the infallible power of Shakers Extract (SeigePs Syrup) in less complicated though similar diseases. they resolved to test it fully in this. To leave no ground for doubt they prescribed the rem edy in hundreds of cases which had been pronounced incurable-with perfect success in every instance where their directions as to living and diet were scrupulously fol- lowed. Nervous Dyspepsia and Exhaustion is peculiarly Ameri- can disease. To greater or less extent half the people of this coun- try suffer from it-both sexes and all ages. In no country in the world are there so many insane asylnms filed to oyerfc wing, al! resulting from this alarming dis case. Its leading symptoms are these: Frequent or continual head ache, a dull pain in the base of the brain. bad breath, nauseous eructa- tions. the rising of sour and pun gent fluids to. .the throat, sense oi and faintness at the pit of the stomach. flatulence, wake eful- ness and loss of sleep, disgust with food even when weak from the need 'f it. sticky or slimy matter on the .eeth or in the mouth, especially 'n rising in the morning, furred md coated tongue. dull eyes, cold hands and feet, constipation, dry 'r rough skin, inability to fix the hind on any labor calling for con- inuous attention, and oppressive md sad forebodings and fears.
 All this terrible group Shaker Extract (Seigel's Syrup removes y it's positive, powerful, direct yet painless and gentle action upon the unctions of digestion and assimila. ion. Those elements of the food hat build up and strengthen the ystem are sent upon their mission, while all waste matters (the ashaa

SILVER JACKS THEOLOGY.

The incident embodied in this poem was given to the writer, substantially as related, by former associate of Driscol.1

Concluded 1t Was Necessary
From the Dakota Bell


number of years ago, during the grass
hopper raids in Dakota and other parts of the
West, Elder Blodgett held a series of revival
meetings in a small place in the southeastern
part of the Territory, where the settlement then
was chiefly confined He had preached pow
erful sermon and had induced about two-thirds
of the congregation to come forward and indi-
cate their desire to unite with the church. Fear
ing that some might not fully understand the
new duties the step would involve, he began to
explain what they must not do in the future.
"You must stop lynn an cheatin' an Sab
bath breakin," he said, IAN if any of you've
been stealin' you've got to stop that, too. An
there must be no more covetin, or neighbor-
hood quarTelin', and no Swearn'-''

Drummers' License Fees.

The merchants in the great commercial
cities who have paid a drummers' tax i'll
various towns in different parts of the coun-
try propose to get their money back if they
can. The United States Supreme Court re-
Gently declared this tax to be unconstitll-
tioual, and the merchants who have paid il
are advised that they can recover all they
have paid
The decision of the Supreme Court was
rendered in a Tennessee case, and as it
covers about all possible points, it looks as
if tho merchants had a chance of recovering
very handsome sum of money Some idea
of the amount collected from drunmers
throughout the entire country may be oh
tanned from the amount that has been collect
ed in the District of Columbia. In 1881 it was
10000, though the average in subsequent
years was about $4,000. Probably the
whole amount would not fall far short of
$l50,000. When it is remembered that the
tax was pretty generally imposed, and that
it was collected for quite a number of wears,
it will be seen that it is not q small sum
that the merchants propose to make an
effort to get. If suits are begun against all
the small towns which have collected the
tax n good many lawyers will have THEN
business increas,1. It is doubtful, however
if IA demand will be made upon any but the
larger cities for a return of the tax.

The Yellow-Headed Boy.
From, the Chicago Tribune.


On suburban train not long ago a beautiful
little fellow with long yellow curls attracted
much attention from the passengers by his
bright questions to his mother and bis ready re-
spouse TO the advances of the admiring specta-
tors.
How old are you, my little man?' asked a
very swell youth in tall silk hat, silver headed
cane. and very high collar. The little chap
cooked his head on one side and looked his queS-
TONER over rather donbtfuy evidently as to
what sort Of fish, flesh or fowl it was, but finally
responded Five yees."
All" replied the swell youth, land when
were you 81"
The little man cooked his head on the other
side and took long look at the swell youth.
The result of his examination didn't appear to
be entirely favorable for he suddenly assumed
very dignifed and non committal air and
turned to look out of the window, remarking.

littla laugh TO the chorus, looked knowingly at
the swell young man, and then looked out Of the
window again.
